ARTIST AT WORK: GESTURAL ABSTRACTION

Here, at last, is the day you've possibly been waiting for: the day when Byron demonstrates the art of Gestural Abstraction.
 
GA (aka Action Painting) can get a bit messy, so I hope you heeded yesterday's warning about not wearing your best clothes!
 
Of course, if you are at all nervous about this you could always hire an umbrella or buy a disposable protective poncho in the Gift Shop.
 
Byron is in the middle of the gallery channelling Norman Bluhm or Jackson Pollock at their chaotic messiest – he stands in a maelstrom of paint, covered in multicoloured smudges and splashes, while behind him hangs a work he completed earlier.
 
Please don't touch this as the paint is still wet – it will be available for purchase once it has dried out!
 
If you do happen to get some paint on your clothes, feel free to avail yourself of a bottle of Souvenir Paint Remover from the Gift Shop.
